1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Expression plasmids were constructed in which the human beta-globin gene or a variant of it precisely lacking its two introns was transcribed from its own promoter, the herpes simplex virus type 1 thymidine kinase (HSV-tk) promoter, or the immediate early promoter of human cytomegalovirus (CMV-IE). Forty two hours after transfection of these plasmids into monkey kidney cells, nuclear and cytoplasmic RNA were isolated. Quantitative S1 nuclease mapping and primer extension analysis were used to determine the relative abundances, cellular locations, and leader sizes of the accumulated beta-globin RNAs. Whereas transcripts of all of the intron-containing genes accumulated in the cytoplasm to high levels, transcripts of their cDNA variants were neither stably maintained in the nucleus nor accumulated in the cytoplasm, irrespective of the promoter from which transcription was driven. We conclude that the intron requirement for cytoplasmic accumulation of beta-globin RNA can not be circumvented by synthesis from either the promoter of the intronless HSV-tk gene or the CMV-IE promoter.
